Follow on Google News | NineSigma to Support the World’s Largest Innovation NetworkUS-EU Match to connect American companies with innovators from U.S. and European Union
By: NineSigma As a successful network for connecting market needs to technology solutions, the Enterprise Europe Network is a merger of two successful, long-running networks, the Innovation Relay Centers and the European Information Centers. Both have proven successful in blending tools and personnel to make connections. As a result of the merger, the Enterprise Europe Network has become the world’s largest network for technology and business internationalization services. NineSigma, the leading provider of open innovation solutions for Global 1000 companies will connect clients to the more than 1 million members of the Enterprise Europe Network representing business, academia, and government. With operations in Europe, Japan and the United States, NineSigma is delivering comprehensive open innovation services for companies around the world, as well as facilitating partnerships between European and U.S.-based organizations and international solution providers. NineSigma will provide US-EU Match and its partners with a consistent stream of technology requests from global innovation seekers, which represent a variety of industries, including manufacturing, packaging, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and medical, and consumer goods. “NineSigma is working to extend the benefits of open innovation to innovation seekers and solution providers around the world,” said Charles Brez, vice president, Innovation Alliances for NineSigma, Inc. “US-EU Match combines the best practices of expert technology transfer professionals and proven IT tools. I can’t imagine any need that can’t be solved by this exceptional pool of technical and business talent. The Network has tremendous potential to increase transatlantic activities, reduce barriers of entry for small and medium-sized companies to play in the global marketplace, and further shrink the world of business.” The US-EU Match network is focused on providing companies and research institutes with a variety of services to facilitate transatlantic business and partnerships, including: • Access to NineSigma’s requests for proposals, solutions and partners; • Networking opportunities to connect U.S. businesses and researchers to European counterparts; • Network website (www.us-eu-match.com); • On-demand support services responding to client needs. “NineSigma and the other members of the U.S. consortium will significantly enhance the transatlantic trade initiatives between two of the world’s biggest economies,” said Angelos Pangratis, deputy head of the Delegation of the European Commission. “US-EU Match has established a strong foundation of industry leaders that understand the role of innovation and the importance of technology exchange. Together, they can make a significant impact on the volume and success rate of business opportunities between U.S. and European companies.” About EABO The European-American Business Organization, Inc.
